I took a step back a while ago. Obama certainly is a wonderful orator, maybe bordering on 'great'. He has a beautiful family. At the time, he said the right things.
However, I thought, as this continued, he would draw to him, and they would attain national attention, members of the African American community as repulsive to whites, as David Duke is to blacks.
If you saw the Wright tapes, did you see the guys in the back come up and knuckle him on the back? There was another somewhere where Obama was speaking, and he had some old black men behind him, white beards, nodding their heads like kids listening to IPODS. We are going to see underground racial stuff, we will see all sorts of awful, derogatory, nasty racial hate themes. and the talking heads, who can't talk about, or even relate to the avg or lower classes of society, will opine on, totally ignoring the obvious. Hate and fear are basic human tenents. And man, they are ugly.
Obama will mobilize the white vote like a 200mm dollar phone drive couldn't. I actually heard someone, I suppose a 'white trash' type people would refer to her as, refer to a 'niggar cop'. I'm pretty law and order, and to hear that just stunned me. I can just imagine her calling her old man, telling him they had to register to vote "so that niggar don't get it."
Maybe its' some type of catharsis the nation has to go to . I was so hoping it would be a Condi, or a Colin Powell to run as the first Black. They have more accomplishments. they are older, well heeled, impressive and Patriots. And then, these tapes had to show. It's going to be awful.
Dick morris today on dickmorris.com says Obama has already won the nomination, and Hillary can't stop him. But this is going to get so nasty and derisive over the summer and fall. I dread it.
